TOUGH STUFF
GLOBAL SOCIAL BENEFIT INCUBATOR 2009 PROBLEM: >500 M people in Africa without electricity. Population growth rate exceeds grid expansion rate. Kerosene and wood are poor solutions for lighting. SOLUTION: Affordable solar powered energy products for lighting, mobile phone charging, and radios. Payback period of 2-3 months with annual savings of $100/year thereafter. Selling provides local jobs.
“ GSBI helped us become ‘investment ready’ and reinforced much of the work we were doing on Impact Assessment .” -
